Jeannette Glass shell pink cake stand
 If you collect Jeannette Glass, you already know that these beautiful shell pink pieces are quickly becoming scarcer than hen’s teeth because they were only produced for two years (1957-1959). So we’re understandably proud to be able to offer this striking pedestal cake stand as a premier example of Jeanette shell pink glass. Founded in 1888 as Jeannette Bottle Works in Jeannette, PA, the company changed its name to Jeannette Glass Company and incorporated in 1898. By 1924 it was being described as “one of the most complete automatic factories in the country.” Jeannette introduced colored glass in 1925 and went on to make some of the most popular, not to mention prettiest, lines of both dinnerware and kitchenware in green, amber, pink, jadite, delphite, and ultramarine, but ultimately ceased doing business in 1983. They used many of their earlier patterns for the short-lived shell pink line, including this one called “Harp,” which actually looks more like a diamond or lattice design. Standing 5" tall, this cake stand’s 10-1/8" diameter raised rim is beaded, and larger beads form the foot of the 4" diameter pedestal base. The underside of the plate is textured, and a beaded design encircles both the middle of the stem and the lower portion of the base. This truly lovely cake stand is in perfect condition with no nicks, chips, or cracks, and certainly enhances the presentation of your 9" layer cakes. Very festive indeed, not to mention a valuable vanishing collector’s prize! (Click on picture for more images.) Tell a friend.

Vintage tall lidded candy jar
 This beautiful old clear glass jar has such a lovely curvaceous shape and undoubtedly is an example of a drug store apothecary or display jar. It stands 7-3/4" tall and rises to 9-1/4" when lidded. Both the round base and mouth opening are just a shade over 3" in diameter. The neck features a band of 3/8" x 7/8" rectangular indentations, below which the jar body curves out to become four-sided before curving back in again to another band of rectangular indentations above the base. The bottom surface features a double ring of raised dots and carries the numbers 2, 3, and 8. The two mold lines run all the way from top to bottom. The bottom rim of the lid has an upside down raised number 42, and its flat top has an incised design that looks like a flower or snowflake. Perfect condition with no chips, cracks, or scratches.

Tall Fresherator jar
 Well, here’s a great nostalgia piece for you. An old Fresherator refrigerator jar straight out of the ’30's or ’40's when these jars were often given as bonuses with the purchase of a new refrigerator. This one is the large 3 pint size, with markings on the back indicating the 1, 2, and 3 pint levels. The front has the “Fresherator” script in a banded rectangle that descends into the 1-1/2" stippled border encircling the bottom portion of the jar. The jar stands 7-1/4" tall with a base and outer rim of 4-5/8" diameter. Inner rim mouth diameter is 3-1/8". Bottom is marked with an S followed by an interlocking G and C followed by a zero. It also carries the number 3860 with an additional 3 underneath. Surely this jar originally must have had a lid or a stopper, but it doesn’t now and neither the inner nor outer rim shows any scuffage or roughness where one might have been used decades ago. In other words, this jar is in perfect condition with no nicks, chips, cracks, or scratches. If you want a set, we have a pair of shorter Fresherators listed immediately below.

Pair of Fresherator jars
 Here are a pair of old Fresherator refrigerator jars that are shorter versions of our taller jar listed immediately above. These have no marking on the back to indicate their capacity, but I couldn’t resist experimenting, and they hold right at 3-1/2 cups apiece. Their diameters are exactly the same as the taller jar (base and outer rim of 4-5/8" diameter; inner rim mouth diameter of 3-1/8"), but these stand a shade over 4-1/4" tall. Each has the “Fresherator” script in a banded rectangle on its front that descends into the 1-1/2" stippled border encircling the bottom portion of the jar. Bottoms are marked with an S followed by an interlocking G and C followed by a 9 and also carry the number 3858. However, one has an additional 3 underneath, while the other has an additional 7 underneath. Just like their taller counterpart, neither of these jars has a lid or stopper, and neither shows any scuffage or roughness at the inner or outer rim to indicate that it ever did. Both are in perfect condition with no nicks, chips, cracks, or scratches. (Click on picture for more images.) Tell a friend.

Vintage sun tea jar
 Remember when these classic sun tea jars appeared in the 1970's? Everyone had to have one and a new craze began! This one features a yellow plastic spigot and screw-on lid. At 6" in diameter and standing 10-1/4" tall when lidded, it holds 1 gallon and has a measurement scale on the side that goes from 1 - 3 quarts. Marked GAC, 13, and 4128 on the bottom. Perfect condition with no nicks, chips, or cracks. There’s a little manufacturer’s flaw at the 2 quart mark that looks like a crack but isn’t. If you’ve never made sun tea before, you really ought to try it – it’s one of the best tasting teas in the world! (Click on picture for more images.) Tell a friend.
